Hi everyone, I'm eventually getting around to replacing the clutch on my 1UZFE powered LJ70 with R151F gearbox. I think it has the dreaded dual mass flywheel, but I haven't taken it apart yet. It shudders a bit on release, and increasingly slips under any kind of heavy throttle from 3rd on up. A...

I'm having trouble finding a remanufactured steering box for my LJ70 RHD UK model. Does anyone know if ones from any other models will fit? I see a 94 Prado one looks very similar if not identical, based solely on photos (e.g. guessing!) I've sent three contact emails out to steering specialist...

Hi all, just venting some anger here with a serious question over UK parking and traffic laws. First of all, our house is located at the end of a narrow alleyway in a small Scottish town. We're getting blocked in by cars almost once a day now, if not twice, and it gets worse in summer when...

I have an LJ70, but if I had the money I'd have a look at this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Toyota-Land-Cruiser-BJ42-LX-1984-/182445541598?hash=item2a7a9a08de:g:cakAAOSw4DJYl4Li If anyone on here buys it or looks at it, let me know! Cheers

Hi all, my 88 LJ70 steering is not nearly as tight as I'd like. The steering rod ends all seem tight, and the times I've had it up in the air all the play seems to be in the box. I've tightened the adjuster screw, but the nut is partially frozen and not getting a true sense of tightness - don't...

Hi all, Wanting to occasionally mount a 10l (or even just 5l) jerry can with petrol on the back of my 4.0l LJ70 as I work/travel in remote places here in Scotland frequently. Is this legal? I can't find any info online, other than 10l is the max for petrol in the boot of a car. No mention on...

Hi all, I'm after some wheel arches, mudflaps and interior rear side/rear door cards for my LJ70 - colour not important, condition is of some importance! The vehicle is in fully restored condition, so not wanting to mess with the stuff I've seen on ebay so far (unless wheel arches are repairable...

Hi everyone, as I'm new to owning the LJ70 I'm looking for a shifter bushing kit for my R151F gearbox as mine is sloppy. It is only a nylon bush and a nylon seat, (sometimes with a metal cap included) but the only place I can find it is in Spain and shipping is 25 Euro for this tiny package...

Just picked up about 2 square metres of some super-duty 1/4" plate steel (6.35mm) In four sheet, light surface rust on one side, out of very old fuel oil tank cut up next door behind old business. So on my 88 LJ70, anybody have recommendations for what areas need protecting the most? Going to...

Hi everyone, as some of you might know, I recently picked up a rather nice looking 1988 LJ70 with the Toyota 1UZFE V8 conversion - again some of you may have recognised it as one of the forum member's old LJ builds. From what little information I have been given, seems West Coast had it for a...

Hi all, First post here and a few questions if I may. I'm looking to replace my overall brilliant Suzuki Jimny work vehicle (4" lift, 29" ATs) with a 1980s LJ70 SWB 'Bundera' 2.4 2L-T or a mid-90s LJ70 (would this be an import?) with the 3.0 1KZ-T or TE (more miles on the clock but quite a...
